WHAT IF EVERYONE ON THE ROAD HAD WEAPONS?
Hurtling through the turn, you lock-on to the lead car and fire. In less than a second, your Falcon missile slams into the target and explodes in a ball of fire. You smile to yourself he was a good assassin, but a lousy driver. Instantly, your radar detects a terminator bearing down on your exhaust. You swerve, but it's too late. Another small mistake ends a brief career on the Death Track . . . yours.
In Deathtrack, you participate in a racing event that takes place on tracks all over the United States. The races are a combination of, well, racing, and brutal violence. See, while the race is all about coming in first, how you achieve that spot is up to you. You can either simply outrun your opponents by means of speed, or you employ the use o weapons to tilt the odds in your favour.
At your disposal is a multitude of weapons, ranging from a machine gun to a laser, guided missiles, or a rambar with spikes that will rip the car of anyone getting in front of you to absolute shreds.
Keys:
"A" turns your auto-pilot on or off, so you can enjoy the scenery, or focus on blasting your opponents. "W" allows you to cycle through weapons. An alternative to that is t use the keys 1-7 (1 = Machine guns, 2 = laser, 3 = particle beam, 4 = terminators, 5 = missiles, 6 = mines and 7 = caltrops). "H" turns the HUD on or off. "C" drops a caltrop for your opponents to chew up their wheels on. "M" does the same for mines.
"Space" fires your currently selected weapon, while "Enter" cycles through targets.
